quick delivery
i bought a black caselogic nylon case for my small portable harddrive
ordered on the 16th and arrived on the 20th, via courier, requiring a signature. was sent confirmation emails of the purchase and dispatch, as well as a link to track my order. so definitely happy with the price, delivery time and security of the order
however, the website had a very limited product description (eg. no dimensions of the case, besides a generic "suitable for most portable hard drives") and the single picture did not display the product very clearly. it looked like the case only zipped open top side, but in actual fact, it zips from the top down to the right hand side
so in terms of expectations, the case wasnt exactly was i was after, and i feel that the website could have included better pictures and more detailed product information, but not a dealbreaker and i cant complain too much for the price

Bad Product
I ordered a GPS from the website to my friend in WA. The order arrived in a week but the GPS charger doesn't work. At first we thought it was because of the old car so we left it unused for 2 months. Then I found an old phone charger to try and found the GPS was working normally so we concluded the charger was broken. We complained Dick Smiths and they advised us to ask the manufacturer first for faster service. We found it troublesome so we ordered a charger from ebay. The GPS worked for a few days with the new charger but then I couldn't turn it on anymore. Anyway, it was a single incident, other orders were all fine to me.

Easy Purchase
I purchased a couple of games for my Kinect during a clearance sale from Dick Smith. Buying them online ensured that I was able to get them at the sale price.
Postage was reasonably priced and they arrived very quickly. I was very happy with the experience.

awful, awful app. comparably slow shipping time with subpar communication
decided to give the new dick smith android app a go and ordered a 1.5TB Toshiba Portable Hard Drive, that was an advertised special in their catalogue. delivery was free
firstly, the experience with the app was INCREDIBLY painful. finding the portable hard drive was an effort (it wasnt in the logical category - the 500Gb was there, but not the 1.5TB). a search finally revealed it. in between all this, the app kept crashing or unexpectedly logging out. no idea why. adding the item to the cart also resulted in app crashes (and it doesnt save your item in the cart, so you have to restart the process over again)
i decided to try and fill out my details first and then try to make the purchase. i previously had an account with dick smith, but the app wouldnt recognise my login details. somehow resetting my password (from a desktop browser) made it work.
mind you, the whole time, the app is still crashing
cutting it short, i finally (after around 2 hours and 25+ attempts) managed to place my order and make a payment. confirmation of my order arrived the next day (i actually thought it had failed as im used to receiving confirmation emails within 5-10 minutes)
finally 6 days later (i was just about to call dick smith and query my order status as there was no communication for such a long time), i received an email stating the my item had been shipped via AAE with a tracking number and link (the link went to a blank page...)
2 days after that, my item arrived.
overall, im happy i (finally) got my item.
BUT avoid the app like the plague! its so badly designed that only my sheer stubbornness got my order through. i also felt that delivery and communication of order details were quite lacking. im surprised it took 6 days to have the item ready to be shipped, especially compared to other experiences ive had with other retailers
next time, im more likely to walk into a store and buy the item or order through their regular website - its a lot less painful. that app REALLY needs ALOT of work done to it
